So, for those kids thinking about dropping out, don't let some college educated elitist discourage you. Who does Obama think he is? Bracey's obviously has no line on the Drop Out Life either. Keep it grimey, I say. If you are geeked about leaving the grind of high school for the glamourous life of, uh... hmm... whatever or thinking about bailing out of undergrad--well, there are probably at least ten good reasons to go for it. But because I'm that dude, and I work for YOU, I present, as a public service:

15 (!) Good/Great Reasons to Drop Out

1) You don't like shrimp that much anyways.

2) Finishing what you started = overrated.

3) Your parent never thought you'd amount to anything, and it would be disrespectful to prove them wrong.

4) Eating everyday is luxurious and wasteful --- WTF?

5) Who needs an apartment with a bedroom? Get a matress and WetNap --- now THAT's gangster!

6) Ambition is for white people. Errbody knows that.

7) Anybody that wants you to do better just won't love you for being YOU.
